I scheduled an appointment with Highline's Financial Aid Office two months in advance, but because…read moreI arrived 15 minutes late due to work, my appointment was canceled on the spot. I then checked in at the office and was given a 108-minute wait time through their outdated sign-in system. After waiting over an hour with no update or email (despite a sign stating that we would receive one upon check-in), I asked about my place in line. I was told they couldn't help me. When I asked again about the missing email confirmation, I was told I'd need to sign in again and start my wait all over, essentially wasting the hour I had already spent. At every step it felt like I was hitting intentional barriers rather than being helped. The lack of communication, transparency, and empathy for students -- many of whom are juggling jobs and classes -- is unacceptable. This office badly needs a modernized system and staff who are willing to assist students instead of pushing them back to the start.

Blossom Nursing Academy is one of those rare places that actually showcase how much it works…read moretowards the growth of its students. Very hands-on teaching, not just with skills, but also with guiding us students step by step through the process. You are not treated like any other student, you are seen, supported, and encouraged to be at your best. The mentors here aren't just teaching for the sake of teaching; they actually care. They explain with patience, share real-life lessons, and make sure you're confident, not only in the classroom but also in actual practice. It feels like being in a community that wants you to succeed, not just pass. So, if you want a place that has incorporated heart, guidance, and real hands-on learning, then Blossom Nursing Academy is definitely the place where students don't just study-they grow, they learn, and blossom. Kudos to Ms Tessa and Ms Dorirs!! Will definitely miss you

Once I asked a question to Doris she wants to be trying to ridicule me in front of the class. If you don't want this job, don't do it! Then after that, she saw me upset and tried to talk to path of "God forgives" at the end of class to everyone. Your religion doesn't make me forgive you haha. You're a nurse, not a pastor. Even had people with head wraps talking all that. Insane! If you sign up, be prepared. Also, someone from Renton had to go to Tacoma for clinicals and not Federal Way! BE PREPARED HAVE THICK SKIN!

She also informed me that she would not refund the money I had paid already. She was extremely rude to me. So I would not recommend.

Online CNA course -…read more Class started at least 10 minutes late every day, from day 1. Over the first three days, about two hours of each day was going over the schedule and trying to figure out conflicts. On the third or fourth day a classmate voiced frustration with the late start times and our substitute teacher, the CEO of the school, ripped into her very rudely about doing her part and studying - not the topic we were on at all and the delivery was extremely rude and unprofessional. Our regular teacher returned, I have to say this was the least engaging class I've ever sat through. The instructor read us the PowerPoint verbatim, including saying "continued" out-loud when reading onto a new slide. One day was canceled the morning of without explanation, and we never even covered the last two chapters of the book together; we were instructed to just read that part out of the book for the final exam. Quizzes for this online course are scanned and emailed, with pages missing, and the students have to figure out how to get this PDF either printed or saved to edit, and sent back as an attachment or scan it back. Who has a printer/scanner at home? If you're going to make an online course, make it online. The school did not submit my background check in time, so the facility where clinical hours were to be held could not legally allow me to get my clinical hours there. The school was zero help with this communication. After my background check finally got approved, they would not work with me to get my required hours to take the state test. I was offered one make-up day but with less than 2 days notice. Poor organization, poor communication, poor online classroom setup.

As someone new to the medical field, I was initially intimidated and concerned that I wouldn't be prepared or confident once I started clinicals, but it was the exact opposite. Because of the in depth training, I felt very ready to apply the skills and knowledge we learned in class! I highly recommend this program to anyone who is motivated and ready to take on the challenge of being a certified nurse assistant!

Also, these businesses are blind to what's going on. They have people begging for change outside their store, as they charge $20 for a sandwich?
